"שלום עליכם": הלחן המקובל והמלחין נשכח

Eliyahu Schleifer presents a review of the piyyut 'Shalom Aleychem,' and an analysis of the setting of cantor-composer Israel Goldfarb, with references to the composer's biography.
The article is very focused and gives a clear and broad image of a song, which according to the writer, became one of the symbols of Jewish music.
The article came out as part of the Jubilee volume in honor of Avigdor Herzog, 'Lev Shome'a,' in Duchan 16, 2005.
